China News Service, Beijing, July 8th: Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng said in Beijing on July 8th that China has no intention of interfering in the U.S. election, but some people in the United States have been playing the Chinese card, accusing China of interfering in U.S. internal affairs and influencing U.S. elections. This is very unfair to China.
On the same day, Le Yucheng made the above remarks in a video dialogue on Sino-US relations jointly organized by the Chinese People's Institute of Foreign Affairs and the American Asian Association.
He pointed out that no one in China and the United States can change anyone, and don't ideologicalize Sino-US relations. As the ruling party of China, the Communist Party of China is the choice of history and the people, and it is firmly supported and supported by 1.4 billion people. Any attempt to sever the flesh-and-blood ties between the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese people is futile. At that time, the Sino-US "Shanghai Communique" clearly stated that "the social systems of China and the United States are essentially different", but this did not affect our establishment and development of relations between the two countries. Today, 48 years later, this distinction should still not be an obstacle for China and the United States to deepen cooperation and move towards the future.
"China has always adhered to the principle of non-interference in internal affairs and has no intention of interfering in the US elections. Some people in the United States have been playing the Chinese card, and in turn accused China of interfering in the internal affairs of the United States and influencing the US elections. This is very unfair to China." Le Yucheng said.
He said that the United States has always talked about market spirit and fair competition, but in action it is "Wu Dalang opens a shop-no big guys are allowed", and does not allow others to be better and more competitive than themselves. At the same time as China's rapid development, China's contribution to the world is obvious. For many years, China has contributed more than 30% to world economic growth and more than 70% to global poverty reduction. The United States not only does not recognize China as a veritable "excellent student", but also spares no effort to suppress it. Even in the field of humanistic exchanges, it is becoming more and more hysterical. It monitors scholars, drives journalists, arrests international students, and closes Confucius Institutes. It is doubtful. Is McCarthyism back?
"Sino-US relations are critical to the future and destiny of the two countries and humanity. They cannot be kidnapped by extremists, and they cannot be allowed to bring Sino-US relations into a dead end." Le Yucheng said. (Finish)
